I picked this up for my niece who is newly married and--how shall I put this--clueless when it comes to housekeeping. This book is adorable and full of really simple tips that make a real difference. It is sweetly illustrated and chic enough for the Vogue reader, rather than the Sunset one. I loved the party ideas, and the author's quirky voice!
